Propane Poppin Johnnies | My absolute fondest memories in life are the ones of my teen aged summers working the land on my grandfather's farm. He had two '49 Model A's. One was a very nice, solid tractor with factory propane. The other was a little more roughed up machine that had a bad clutch and even worse brakes. I always went for the latter and let my older brother take the 'good' one. Mostly because mine had add-on propane. Now those of you who are familiar with the old John Deere propane and any one who knows how 'high strung' my older brother was at that time in his life, knows why I did it. I look back with great pleasure the many times the piercing sound of the propane tank 'pop off' valve going off sent him into orbit. Eventually forcing him to take the 'bad' tractor away from me and making me 'Suffer' with the slickest Model A John Deere in Southern Oklahoma.
